Thanks for letting me know where to find this OneWithTheForce. I'm about to be laid up for 4 weeks - need some good things to watch while healing

This is a piece that would have benefited from exposure at conventions. It's a shame that Sideshow doesn't seem to be doing them anymore.

The prices and market over saturation are gonna be the end of the hobby

I agree that's one thing that would help, also at this point we've seen this same pose over and over again. As far as Batman goes a museum or Captain Morgan pose would be "original".

I would agree. I have been a major collector of this stuff and I am struggling to justify the prices. Plus with new releases from multiple companies continually coming into the market, forget anything holding its value.

There has been an over saturation of Batman statues. You get all sorts of different Batmans so I'm not surprised with the low ES. Also, too many Harley Quin and Joker pieces. No one cares anymore.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I remember when I first got into this hobby Marvel was trying to keep the custom market at bay, but now it seem like they have all but just given up the fight. Now the market is just over saturated with statues from all over the world and custom statue companies have taken over.

Not surprised at the low ES. Congrats to those that like this. I was always put off by the fabric jacket/cape and the doghouse base. I do really like the portrait though and think it is a great headsculpt.
